Last of the great Warwick/Bacharach/David collaborations. 'Just as long as we still can talk / we can make amends' is surely songwriter speak for 'See you in court'.
'There are needs we have as we are young / and discard as we mature' says the opening track. Similarly, some things you grow into. Year by year I'm more drawn to Bacharach's legendary late '60s, early '70s mid-life ennui. I'm not sure if that thought should comfort me or scare me.
'The balance of nature' is the greatest Bacharach/David song full stop.
